I always used pdftex with plain TeX and tikz.tex, and it worked great until today. The paper I'm writing is long, so I reduced the problem to a simple plain TeX file to show that there's a bug with tikz.tex: %\input tikz Some text\footnote*{A footnote} \bye First, compile with 'tex thisfile.tex' with the tikz line commented out. See the footnote in the resulting dvi. Now compile again but this time including the tikz line, and see how the footnote disappears! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just compile the above 3-line file with \input tikz and without 2. 3. Actual Results: The \input tikz line makes the footnote disappear from the dvi. Expected Results: If no tikz command is used, just including tikz.tex should not break the resulting output file. This used to work in openSUSE 11.4 and I rely on this behavior to write my papers. For me in particular this is bug with Severity: Major, because I rely deeply on the tikz feature on plain Tex to write my papers. But I'm leaving it as "Normal". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
